Mazi Mosley, A 4-star shooting guard out of Montverde Academy (Fla.) announced he is committing to LSU and Matt McMahon, he posted on his social media accounts.
Mosley chose the Tigers over Iowa, Michigan, USC, and several others.
According to 247Sports, Mosley is the No. 10 ranked shooting guard as well as the No. 11 ranked prospect in the state of Florida in the 2025 recruiting cycle.
“I chose LSU because I enjoyed the culture as well as the homelike feeling where they were good to me and my family” Mosley told Joe Tipton, of On3Recruits.com. “I like how the coaching staff brings good energy every single day”, Mosley added.
Mosley took an official visit to LSU back on September 20 and after he took some time to reflect on the campus with his family. He decided that it was the school that was going to give him the best fit.
Mosley becomes the second commit for McMahon and the LSU staff as he joins William Penn Charter (Pa.) four-star power forward Matt Gilhool who committed to the Tigers earlier in the month.
Mosley transferred to Montverde Academy over the summer where he blossomed his basketball career in the greater Los Angeles area playing at St. Francis High School and West Coast Elite on the Under Armour circuit.
Here’s a Scouting Report on Mosley, via Adam Finkelstein: Mosley is a late-blooming big guard who is only just beginning to fill out his frame, but possesses a very intriguing long-term combination of perimeter size, skill, and fluidity. He shoots a very good-looking ball from long-range, but only made 28% of his threes in this year’s UAA season. The jumper projects as a critical part of his value at the next level, so being more consistent is very important. While he typically plays off the catch from the wing area – where he has a good sense of spacing, how to play off other people, and a complimenting pull-up game – he’s also shown some signs of playmaking and passing off the dribble more recently.
Mosley’s physical progression is an important long-term key, both to his playmaking potential and total floor game. While he has good positional size, he lacks ideal length. He’s not yet fully explosive or strong enough to consistently play through contact. As a handler, he lacks a great first step, but can be fluid with his secondary moves if he’s able to get an initial angle and make some basic pick-and-roll reads. Right now, Mosley can also be overpowered at times defensively and needs to commit himself to improving on that end.
